#Saying all fic writers aren't authors or writers it's just straight up stupid

[white-nolse]

Ok, I woke up at like... 6am and saw something that pissed me off a lot, so of course I'm making a poll to get more info, so...

Reblogs are greatly appreciated!

a list of horrors I have experienced in the atz fic community on twitter

cliques. I don't know how to describe how cliquey it is, but it's genuinely the most intimidating community I've ever tried to join. and it's very easy to tell when you're In or not, because you get completely ignored if you dare speak to someone whose clique you aren't part of

most fucking insane ship discourse you've ever seen. if you don't ship the popular ships you're denying reality. if you do ship them you're boring and uncreative. if you ship them the wrong way you're stupid

the only place I've ever been where people actually care who tops or bottoms. like people straight up will only write one dynamic and refuse to read any other dynamic and eviscerate anyone who doesn't write and read their chosen dynamic

pussy discourse. who should have a pussy. if its fetishism. if trans people have a right to be uncomfortable because it's other trans people writing it

bottom hwa cult. separate to dynamic preferences because the bottom hwa cult are fucking INSANE they will openly act homophobic and display gender essentialism and heterosexism and then the moment someone calls them out they'll threaten to doxx and sic their followers on them while preaching that it's actually the people who are criticising them that are the ones with the stereotyping issue. because in their mind they're breaking a stereotype by making the tall one bottom and see nothing wrong with the fact they're characterising him as hyperfeminine and submissive At All

people are actively encouraged Not to think critically about the content they produce and consume

no content warnings for triggering kinks such as degradation of dubcon, but 'cw: trans character' is one I've seen multiple times

normalisation of degradation to the point they don't realise it Is a kink and think That's Just How Dirty Talk Is and so refuse to cw it

normalisation of dom/sub dynamics to the point they're also not tagged because that's just how sex is (I actually enjoy BDSM stuff sometimes but good lord that's a kink and we tag our kinks here)

theres no easy way to find sfw accs because the whole community refers to itself as nsfw

porn posted regularly and never marked as sensitive

just blatant anti yeosang tweets. for no reason

insulting writers who don't write nsfw while at the same time accusing those same writers of selling out to become popular the second they cave to the pressure and do

fics without smut have such a lacklustre reception than fics that do to the degree multiple authors admit forcing a smut scene in because otherwise people won't read their plot-heavy fic

culture of popular authors with lots of engagement shaming less popular authors with no engagement for wanting comments because "you should write for yourself"

I don't know how to describe it other than "everyone is fake" but someone will say one thing to your face and then something completely contradictory behind your back because it's what the person they're talking about wants to hear

attacking the lone trans fest (also my fest) for not wanting to allow harry potter aus because "I, one specific trans person who is not the moderator who needs to read every fic, have reclaimed it"

and more but this is the worst of it and also the reason why I left
